Château Léoville-Las Cases--Vintage 1970
Saint-Julien, 2me cru classé
Levels: one into neck, seven very top, two top and two upper shoulder In original wooden case
An austere cask sample but soon opened up. Fifteen well spread notes, all good. A gentlemanly classic, marvellous fruit, impressive yet despite its flesh, still tannic. Now mature; typical cedary nose very good balance and flavour, Last noted dining with my old Christie's boss Guy Hannen, July 1996 ****. MB, Vintage Wine.
